Incense, what did you preach at the church? --He who endureth pain in the cause of others must rise from the mortal world to the spheres of immortality. Incense, what does your perfume signify? --My perfume is the evidence of my self-sacrifice. Incense, tell me what moral is veiled in your nature? --When my heart endures the test of fire, my hidden quality becomes manifest. Incense, tell me the secret of your being. --I am the heart of the lover of God, whose deep sign rises upward, spreading its perfume all around. |
